Hey guys, so basically me & my band are looking at recording our EP in a few months. Long story short we have a sort of EP-intro-song that lasts about a minute, of which features a crash on several offbeats in the intro with a sort of hi-hat 'Tss' on the 1/4 Notes. i started questioning the general view on the whole hi-hat anchor thing, and whether or not to keep the 1/4 Hats or have them cut out of the song. FYI it's Thrash metal and the song in question is along the lines of the opening of "The Art of Partying"
